No Brisbane team for 2015/16

The CityCat doesn't go anywhere near Tennyson.

"Wade said the Bullets were no good thing to return in the 2016-2017 season.

“You get us the venue, we’ll get you the team,’’ he said."

Expecting someone to build a ready-purpose stadium for a non-existent team is fairytale stuff. If this is the type of nonsensical drivel emanating from head office then no wonder prospective investors are avoiding the league like the plague.

Because Sport money is becoming too focused whereas in the past it was not and the money isnt there to replace aging infrastructure.

As of next year both Brisbane AND Sydney will not have suitable basketball venues. 2 of the 3 most populated cities in Australia with nowhere good to watch live basketball. How does that happen?

Personally I think putting a team in this late would of been a disaster. Not enough time to build a team, promote/market and sell memberships.

Lets hope for something more solid for the 2016/17 year.

Agreed... get things organised as quickly as possible and then get a good period leading up to getting a team in place with some good marketing and promotion...

A shame that things were promised without really thinking things through as even though it's a legit reason, it still makes the league look bad...

Would be good to see them in, but I wouldn't want to see a half baked team that lasts a season or two.

Replaced as Boomers boss after the Beijing Olympics, Brian Goorjian was picked up by China as an assistant coach, and is now apparently first in line to become head coach as pressure builds on incumbent Guo Shiqiang to keep his job.

Several Chinese media outlets and commentators have called for Guo to be fired after China failed to meet expectations at the recent Asian Championship and the Stankovic Cup tournament, which China hosted and was won by the Boomers under new coach Brett Brown.

I can see this happening for sure. Tom Maher was previously the Chinese women's coach and now Goorj is eet to take the reigns of the underperforming men's team.
